@kirankhailani,
a number of artists have painted oils on papaer, cardboard, or wooden panels or even masonite. I once did a bunch of black and grey and white toned paintings on sheets of zinc. Then I could scratch away the paint where I wanted to show some detail in the lines.
Theres no hard fast rule that you can only paint on canvas. Just remember that when you use a really weak bakground, it can tear with adding lots of oil in the pigment .
What colors of pigm,ent do you have ?
